Deuteronomy 11:18-19

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 19 Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Hemmed!!


Friends of Papa's from when he worked in the bush just had twin boys!! Their 1st and 2nd children so tonight we are going to a baby shower for them. I went to Walmart last night and picked up some great boy fabric and spent the morning hemming it into 2 large blankets for the twins. After I got some kinks worked out the hemming went really well. Surprised me as me and my sewing machine are often at odds with each other. Not outright war but close. I'm not a sewing person at all, though I seem to be overcoming this slowly, and the smallest chores on the machine are great achievements!! It likes Papa better then me and will only grudgingly work for me but will willingly work for him. I took the 2 blankets I made and wrapped the rest of the gift up inside the blanket. One for each of them. Really cute and I didn't have to wrap it!! LOL. I always want to have twin boys and so this is really special for me! I told a friend of mine that recently and she thought I was NUTS to even ever want twins. Then I mentioned that 'maybe our next one will be twins! Wouldn't that be FUN!!" And she gave me this HORRIFIED look. LOL. But I still think twins would be fun. Now that our other kids are older it would be even more fun for us all and I'd have a few helpers as well!! No I'm not crazy, or pregnant :), but I can dream can't I??
